Abstract Background Rheumatic mitral valvular disease is more common than degenerative mitral valve disease. Mitral valve repair is not possible in large number of patients because of rheumatic cicatrized subvalvular mitral valve disease. The prosthetic mitral valve replacement is commonly performed in our center. Objective The aim of the study was to evaluate and assess the short outcome of Mitral Valve Replacement with or without Tricuspid Valve Repair. Patients and Methods This study was done in department of Cardiothoracic surgery, Faculty of Medicine at Ain Shams university, after approval of the local ethical committee from 2015 to 2016.The inclusion criteria includes All gender, All age, Primary Mitral valve replacement for severe Mitral valve disease of Rheumatic origin with or without Tricuspid Valve Repair and Primary Mitral valve replacement for severe Mitral valve disease of Degenerative origin with or without Tricuspid Valve Repair and the exclusion criteria includes concomitant coronary artery bypass graft surgery or other cardiac operations or infective endocarditis and Patients with chronic liver, kidney and parenchymal pulmonary disease. Results This study included one hundred and seventy- seven (177) patients; One hundred and thirty one (131) patients did Mitral Valve Replacement without Tricuspid valve Repair, Fourty six (46) patients did Mitral valve Replacement with Tricuspid valve Repair and the outcome was Mortality (3.9%), Reoperaion (5.08%), Stroke (0. 56%), Re-Intubation (1.13%) and Re-Admission to ICU (1.69%) Conclusion The Reoperation has a direct relation and effect on the Mortality,Prolonged bypass time independently predicts postoperative morbidity and mortality and Prolonged aortic cross-clamp time significantly correlates with major post-operative morbidity and mortality.

This study compares mitral valve repair and mitral valve replacement with chordal preservation for chronic mitral regurgitation due to myxomatous degeneration with special reference to left ventricular function. Twenty-six patients underwent complete preoperative and 2 years later postoperative echocardiography study. Thirteen patients underwent mitral valve replacement associated with preservation of chordae tendineae and papillary muscles, and 13 patients had mitral valve repair. There were no statistically significant differences between the 2 groups for clinical findings, hemodynamic profiles, or left ventricular function compared prior to surgery. After correcting mitral regurgitation, increase in cardiac index was significant for the repair group. Left ventricular end-diastolic volume decreased in both groups. Left ventricular end-systolic volume significantly decreased in the repair group, but remained unchanged in the replacement group. Both ejection fraction and mean left ventricular circumferential fiber shortening velocity (mVcf) decreased in the replacement group, but significantly increased in the repair group 2 years after surgery. These findings suggest valve replacement with chordal preservation shows less improvement in ventricular systolic function late after surgery compared with mitral valve repair.

Myxomatous mitral valve disease (MVD) is a common disorder in which the entire mitral valve apparatus seems to be involved. Mitral valve repair is nowadays the method of choice for the correction of mitral regurgitation but the optimal shape and flexibility of the annuloplasty ring remain controversial. Considering that myxomatous MVD covers a wide spectrum from limited fi bro-elastic deficiency to extensive Barlow disease, we presume that the mitral annulus morphological and functional changes are likely different in different types of myxomatous MVD. We analyze the 3-dimensional geometry and the dynamics of the mitral annulus in 110 patients with significant mitral regurgitation due to different types of myxomatous mitral valve disease and 40 normal subjects using 3D transesophageal echocardiography. The mitral annulus differs in patients with limited MVD, extensive MVD and in normal controls in terms of size, shape, and dynamics. Patients with limited MVD have larger, flatter, dysfunctional and more mobile mitral annulus compared to normal, while patients with extensive MVD have even larger, fl atter and more dysfunctional mitral annulus, with reduced mobility. The non-planar dynamics has different patterns during systole, according to the extension of MV disease. Our data may be important for the appropriate choose of annuloplasty mitral annulus in mitral valve repair, the current trend being to choose the ring according to the underlying pathology.
